Geometry-assisted statistical modeling for face mosaicing
نویسندگان
چکیده
The modeling of facial appearance has many applications. This paper proposes an approach to generating a statistical face model based on video mosaicing. Unlike traditional video mosaicing, we use the geometry of a face to improve the mosaicing result. Given a face sequence, each frame is unwrapped onto certain portion of the surface of a sphere, as determined by spherical projection and the minimization procedure using the Levenberg-Marquardt algorithm. A statistical model containing a mean image and a number of eigenimages, instead of only one image template, is used to represent the face mosaic. Good experimental results have been observed.

Face Mosaicing for Pose Robust Video-Based Recognition
This paper proposes a novel face mosaicing approach to modeling human facial appearance and geometry in a unified framework. The human head geometry is approximated with a 3D ellipsoid model. Multi-view face images are back projected onto the surface of the ellipsoid, and the surface texture map is decomposed into an array of local patches, which are allowed to move locally in order to achieve ...
متن کاملPanoramic face mosaicing and recognition using multi-cameras
In this article, we present some development results of a system that performs mosaicing (or mosaicking) of panoramic faces. Our objective is to study the feasibil ity of panoramic face construction in real-time. To do so, we built a simple acquisition system composed of 5 stan dard cameras which, together, can take simultaneously 5 views of a face at different angles. Then, we chose an eas ...

In this article, we present some development results of a system that performs mosaicing (or mosaicking) of panoramic faces. Our objective is to study the feasibility of panoramic face construction in real-time. To do so, we built a simple acquisition system composed of 5 standard cameras which, together, can take simultaneously 5 views of a face at different angles. Then, we chose an easily ha...
متن کاملOnline Modeling and Tracking of Pose-Varying Faces in Video
Human face recognition is an interesting and popular topic in the vision community. The most important part of a face recognition system is to handle all kinds of variations through modeling. There are many different kinds of variations, such as pose, illumination, expression, aging, etc., among which pose variation is the hardest one to model [1]. We proposes a face mosaicing approach to model...
متن کاملSurface Reconstruction: Online Mosaicing and Modeling with Uncertainty
A burst of research has been made during the last decade on 3D Reconstruction and several interesting and well-behave algorithms have been developed. However, as scanning technologies improve their performance, reconstruction methods have to tackle new problems such as working with datasets of large dimension and building meshes almost in real-time. We pointed out a general need for formal anal...
